Blue Saphir is the sapphire-labelled single barrel that La Maison du Whisky bottled on its own, apart from the boxed glassware set that anchors the 2026 collection. Drawn from cask #481 and bottled at 110 proof (55% ABV), it carries the deep blue accents that mark the Saphir branch of the Paris house's gemstone-themed cask selections, presented in the 700ml export format.
The barrel matured at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, inside the metal-clad Warehouse H, where wide seasonal temperature swings push the spirit deep into new charred American white oak. Cask #481 was bottled in 2026 with no secondary finishing, reduced to a precise 55% that sits at the midpoint of the year's 100-to-120 proof span.
The house's published notes for its sapphire casks describe caramel, dulce de leche, and vanilla layered over baking spice, with lime and grapefruit bringing lift and a long, spice-driven close. Expect that register here with the added grip of the elevated strength, the rye tension playing against a custard-rich mid-palate.
No outturn count has been published for this barrel, which makes it one of the quieter entries in the anniversary-year set. Within the 2026 sapphire family, #481 stands alongside #353, #511, and #562, each dedicated to a different purpose; this is the one issued simply as a bottle, letting the liquid carry the occasion.
